Local to You, Not Just “In Manhattan”
Getting a Panthera appliance right involves a digital scan, a fitting visit once it arrives from the lab, and typically a few adjustment visits as your jaw responds — not a single transaction. Patients near Lincoln Center, Lincoln Square, and along Riverside Drive choose to keep that whole process local so adjustments actually happen on schedule instead of getting delayed by a longer commute.

Am I a Candidate?
Panthera is prescribed for patients diagnosed with habitual snoring or mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea who are candidates for oral appliance therapy. See the full FAQ on our Panthera Appliance page.
Why the Digital Design Matters
Panthera starts from a digital scan of your bite, not a generic mold, and is then designed and 3D-printed to your exact anatomy — a level of precision a stock or over-the-counter mouthguard can't match. That precision is also why fitting isn't a single transaction: your jaw position is fine-tuned over several follow-up visits until the appliance is advancing your jaw enough to be effective without being uncomfortable. See the full Panthera Appliance page for the complete FAQ.

FAQ: Panthera Appliance on the Upper West Side (UWS)
Yes — Dr. Boris Zusin takes the digital scan and handles every fitting and adjustment visit for your Panthera appliance at our West End Avenue office, convenient to Lincoln Center and the rest of the Upper West Side.
Panthera is digitally designed and 3D-printed from your scan to exact specifications for your bite — a more precise, durable fit than an over-the-counter or generic lab-made device.
It varies by patient, but several follow-up visits in the weeks after your initial fitting are common as the jaw position is fine-tuned. Staying local makes it realistic to actually make those adjustments promptly.
Both — the same appliance category treats habitual snoring and mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea, depending on your diagnosis. See the full FAQ on our Panthera Appliance page.
Yes — it's a small, durable, 3D-printed device that packs into its own case, making it easy to bring along on trips, unlike a CPAP machine.
